Floating on Hope - Social-Emotional Lesson for Generation Z and GATE
As with all Portable Gifted and Talented units, Floating on Hope urges creativity, critical thinking, and engages students with a variety hands-on and high interest materials and activities. Sandra Bullock showed us that Hope Floats in the 1998 movie, yet John Irving insisted sorrow does not float in Hotel New Hampshire. Finally, Modest Mouse urges us to just Float On in their upbeat and ironic song. All of these viewpoints are valid for gifted learners who—like all of us—deserve to float on

Density identifies substances. Several activities are given that students can engage in. Comparisons are made between densities of things that can float in water whose density is 1 g/ml or 1kg/L. An object will float if its density is less than the liquid it floats in. Iron floats in mercury. Surface te

Systems of Government PowerPoint – Unitary, Federal, Confederal, U.S. Government
Most students can recite that the U.S. is a "federal" system without understanding what that actually means — or how it differs from the unitary and confederal systems that shaped the choices the Founders made. This PowerPoint builds the whole picture for them, moving from how power is distributed geographically to how much real influence citizens hold, so the categories finally connect instead of floating as isolated vocabulary. The lecture works through each system on its own terms — how it fu
